Andrew Bolt, columnist for the Herald Sun [blog], and frequent talking head on various TV shows, has got one right.
I was "lucky" enough to catch him on one of the TV news-faux-mercials this morning.
Generally he has little idea about the problems facing our world and society, arguing against human-induced climate change for instance, and overall having very little understanding about how the underlying problems of resource depletion have created the troubles we see all around us. Ask him what a war on terror is about and he's sure to think it has something to do with bombings by radicalized groups, failing to make the connection that it's more about subduing the terror that arises in the hearts of all patriotic westerners when they think of going without their privleges, all of which are thanks to oil.
Well folks, this morning he got it right. He uttered words so profound I was momentarily flabbergasted.
He subtley pointed out that last night's win on MasterChef was more a demographic decision than a true judgment of the skill of the participants. Perhaps he has finally found his niche, a spot in the heady world of international affairs where his incisive insights can be put to truly beneficial use.
:-P
